lllflITSIAV ANTGN SORENSEN, '0F JAMAIGA, NEW' tessera.

To all who/fait may concern lle it lrnojivn that L Gus'rav A.. Sonnnsnn. a citizen of'. the United States, residiingg` at Jamaica., illqthe county ot Queens and State i of New Yorin have invented certain new ed when the are sott-boiled.

Another object ofthe invention consists in' iorniingfthe cooker with a. removable basket whereby the eggs may be easily removed. I,

Still. another object of the invention rel sides in the provision. of a novel forni of cover for the cooker, said cooker carrying liti ` the projections 5 descrlbed.

the whistle or alarm, and provided with a handle whereby the eover may he easily removed from. the cooker.

rl still lurtlicr object consists in providiug novel neans :for securingp the cover in yposition While boilingV the eggs.

l/Vith theseand other objects in view my invention consists in the novel detailscf construction and arrangement of parts which will be more Vclearly understood from the *following specification and drawings in. which Figure l is a transverse vertical section., and,

Fi'gf 2 is a top plan with parte broken. away-to show the interior of the cooker.

ln the drawings the numeral l indicates a vessel the upper edge olf' which is flared outwardly to form a flange Q. A bail or clamp 3 is pivotally connected. to each side of the vessel 1 by means ot the straps 4 and said hails or clamps are provided with for a .purpose to be later A cover for theyvessel is indicated at (i and as is clearly shown in ,Fig l of the drawings 'is preferably concavo-convex in cross section. The outer edge of the cover is bent upwardly to form the inclined flange l which is adapted to be received upon the liange 2 of the vessel l. The cover is adapted tov be secured upon the vessel 1 by having the extensions 5 on the hails or clamps 3 extending over the upper edge of the flange as more particularly illustrated in Fig. l. of the drawings.

A sleeve 8 is secured upon the top of Specification of Letters Patent. I

Application tiled Illeccnibcr 5, 1319. Serial No. 3452,58?.

the cover (i and is provided intermediate its ends with an opening 9 for a purpose to be later described. The sleeve l5 provided on the lower end with the out wardly extendino,` flange l() and rive-ts or other suitable fastening .means may he `passed through the flange and. cover lor securing the sleeve in position. il lrnohor handle .l1 `is linovided with Aa reduced slianlr ,lil which is adapted to he .received in the upper end oi' the sleeve. The lrnob orV handie is secured to the sleeve b v means ol a. pin 13 which passes through. the sleeve and through the reduced shank l2.

A tube' 14,. open at each end, passes through the cover G and as shown the upper end of' this tube is in close proximity'vto the openingr 9 in the sleeve 8 whereas the lower endis adjacent the top= of the vessel 1. As shown the tube M preferably entends at an angle and the lovver end will pretu erablvv he .made ol slightly' greater diameter than the' upper end.

A vvire basket 'l5 is adapted to be receivecil in the vessel .'l and is provided with the bail lf of' usual. construction.

lTrom the above detailed description it thou rh tthatthe construction o tiny een; cocher as well as the manner ci' using; will be clearly understood. When it .is desired to use the cooker the hails or clamps ffl ar swung; downwardly and the cover 6 reinovcdlov Egraspin,uv the handle or Inch lll. .The Wire basket 'l5 is removed by means of the bail l@ and the eggs placed therein. The baslret is then again lowered .into the vessel l. and the ve is filled to the desired height with cold iva The cover 6 is then placed in position and the hails or clamps 3 swung 'upwardly so that the extensions 5 extend over the upper edge of the flange 7.V The vessel is then. placed over `the lire and when the Water boils steam will be generated. lllhen the eggs become soiitJlJoled the steam will pass through the lower end ol the tube lel and be emitted from the upper end adjacent the opening 9. This will cause a whistling sound and give alarm. to the parties that the eggs are properly cooked and should be removed. When properly cooked. the cover is then renioved and the eggs removed. from the vessel `l 1n the basket l5.

From the above it will he found that lf have provided a novel form of cooker which will give an' alarm when the eggs have been properly cooked. By such an arrangement il ll losl ying's have reference to what 1na}v he eonered the preferred, or approved` form of 'my invention. It is to 4he understood that I may make sueli changes 1n construction and arrangement and combination of parts, materials, dlmensions, ete., as may prove expedient and fall Within the scope of the appended claims.

Having thus fully described my invention,

, what I Claim as new and desire to seeure by Letters Patent is:-

1.` An alarm for a cooking vessel ineluding a cover for saidvvessel, a sleeve secured to the eover and provided with an opening intermediate its ends, and a tube having its ends open extending through the cover externally of the sleeve and having'its upper end terminating adjacent the opening in the sleeve so vas to form a whistle.

2. In an egg cooker, a vessel, a cover adapted to he received on the vessel.y a sleeve secured to the eover and provided with an opening intermediate its ends. and a tulle having open endsand situated externally of the Isleeve so as to etend diagonally through the cover and having its upper end ternnnaling adjacent the opening in the `sleeve for the purpose of forming a whistle..

3. Annlarm for a cooking vessel ineluding a Cover for said vessel, a sleeve seein-ed to the cover and provided with an opening intermediate its ends. anda tulle having open ends and situated externally of the sleeve so as to extend through the eover and terminate a distance therebelow and having its upper end situated adjaeent the opening in the sleeve so as to form aY whistle.

In testimony whereof I afiix inv signature in presence of two witnesses.
